We had a 1-minute Memorial silence in memory of Marvin Gilbertson, our past president. Secretary Maureen Tait read the minutes of the October meeting, discussion followed. Treasurer Jim Tait gave his report.
The new business topic was our card games. We have not been getting much interest in the evening Kaiser game, so we decided to cut it out and add two more afternoons of 500 and Court Wiz, the two most popular games. There are also two afternoons of Cribbage and one afternoon of Wizard. All card games are on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at 1:30.
Maureen will look after getting the plates engraved and put on the memorial Board of all the members that have passed away this year. Dave Smith adjourned the meeting.
Our deepest sympathies go to Ruth Edwards and all the Edwards family on Ken’s passing. Ken will sadly miss him.
On November 10th, we had four tables of players for 500. Winners were Ruth McNichol, Hazel Eddie, and Maureen Tait.
On Thursday, November 12th, we had 11 players for court Wiz. Winners were Claude McNichol, Jim Tait and Dennis Simpson.
Sorry to report we lost another one of our longtime members, Barrie McClughan. Deepest sympathy to her son Neil, Allen and Scott. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her.
On the 17th, we had 13 players for Wizard. Big winners were Jim Tait, Ray Purdy and Dave Smith.
On November 19th, there were eight players for Cribbage. Winners were Dallas Felske, Dave Smith and Hazel Pomfret.
The folowing Tuesday we had ten players for Court Wiz. Winners were Claude McNichol ready and Judie Purdy.
On Thursday, November 26th, we had 12 players for 500. So nice to get an even number, then we can play as partners. Winners were Shirley Birtles of Drake Jim Tait and Hazel Eddie.
Well, folks, That’s the senior news for November. We keep checking with the government about the rules we must follow, and so far, so good. I wish to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Merry, Safe, Healthy, Happy Holiday season.
